Liron Nunez Weissman has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

Abstract: A compact spectrometer system comprising a light source and a spectrometer module and methods of using a spectrometer to determine information related to a property of a mixture are provided. One or more light sources are used to direct light into a mixture. One or more spectrometer modules are used to receive light from a mixture. One or more spectra are measured in response to the received light. A property of the mixture is determined in response to measured spectra.

Abstract: A device running a game based on spectrometer data comprises a spectrometer configured to detect the spectrometer data of a real-life object, the spectrometer data indicating one or more features of the real-life object, and one or more processors configured to receive the spectrometer data of a real-life object from a spectrometer, determine a game object based on the spectrometer data, wherein the game object has one or more attributes corresponding to the one or more of features of the real-life object, and perform one or more actions on the game object based on the one or more attributes of the game object. Spectrometer data of real-life objects can be generated to create game objects and modify game attributes of the game objects, which can bring more fun into gaming, and stimulate the game player's interest and curiosity in exploring the characteristic associated with various objects in real world.

Abstract: A method for calibration of an imaging device that includes a sensor and optics for forming an image on the sensor. The method includes making a first image quality measurement, based on an output of the sensor, while imaging a first target at a first distance from the device and varying an offset between the optics and the sensor. A second image quality measurement is made while imaging a second target at a second distance from the device, which is different from the first distance, and varying the offset between the optics and the sensor. A working point of the optics is set relative to the sensor responsively to the first and second image quality measurements.
